Procedures for controlling a plant and plant for carrying out such a procedure, wherein the system has movable mobile components along a track, in particular a rail, where the actual position of the respective handset is adjusted to the actual position of the predecessor if the predecessor is located between the actual position of the respective handset and the target position of the respective handset, and otherwise the actual position of the respective handset is adjusted to the target position of the respective handset.

The application discloses a route unlocking processing method under a fault scene and relates to the technical field of railway route unlocking, and comprises the following steps: S1, obtaining a fault unlocking operation and judging whether a fault unlocking operation condition is satisfied; after the condition is satisfied, a fault unlocking handling condition is established; S2, after the fault unlocking handling condition is established, a currently existing route in a route is identified to be a fault route that can be unlocked, and after the identification, counting information of the fault route that can be unlocked is output; S3, starting fault unlocking countdown, continuously checking a fault unlocking counting judgment condition during the counting, stopping the counting when the condition is not satisfied, and after the counting is ended, a judgment result of whether the current route can be unlocked is given; and S4, when the judgment result of whether the current route can be unlocked is that the current route can be unlocked, locking sections in the currently existing route in the route that can be unlocked identified are unlocked. When sections in the route cannot be unlocked due to faults, all remaining sections that are not unlocked can be unlocked through one operation, and the efficiency is improved.

The present invention relates to a method for implementing a scalable semi-centralized and semi-distributed ATS system and a device. The method includes steps of: step S1. performing semi-centralized and semi-distributed arrangement on each device of an ATS system; step S2. adopting one-to-one arrangement for a dispatching control server IPTCTRL and a communication front-end processor server FEP in the same sector; step S3. performing sector-based operation management, wherein a central server CATS supports connection to a plurality of IPTCTRLs and FEPs, and manages information forwarding among different sectors; step S4. performing cross-sector train tracking; step S5. automatically setting, by a train, a cross-sector train route; and step S6. performing cross-sector skip stop and train hold. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has advantages such as distributed implementation at a center level, sector-based operation management, and flexibility and scalability.

The invention relates to a method for controlling a system and to a system for carrying out such a method, wherein the system has mobile parts which can be moved along a track, in particular a rail, wherein the actual position of the respective mobile part is adjusted to the actual position of the predecessor if the predecessor is located between the actual position of the respective mobile part and the target position of the respective mobile part, and otherwise the actual position of the respective mobile part is adjusted to the target position of the respective mobile part.

A multimodal guideway vehicle sensor includes a passive sensor, an active sensor and an unique identification (ID) sensor. The passive sensor is configured to receive and detect a first electromagnetic radiation from a guideway vehicle. The active sensor configured to transmit a second electromagnetic radiation and receive and detect the second electromagnetic radiation reflected from the guideway vehicle. The ID sensor that detects an ID associated with the guideway vehicle. The multimodal guideway vehicle sensor also includes a data fusion center that combines signals from the passive sensor, the active sensor and the ID sensor to produce guideway vehicle information about the guideway vehicle.

The application discloses an electronic switch circuit and a track circuit. The electronic switch circuit comprises a first interface, a second interface, a switch module, a protection module and a relay control interface; the first interface is connected with a positive power receiving end of a first steel rail; the second interface is connected with a negative power receiving end of a second steel rail; the switch module is connected with the first interface, the second interface and the relay control interface respectively, and the switch module is used for controlling the on-off between the second interface and the relay control interface according to the relative relationship between the voltage value of the first interface and a first preset range; the protection module is connected with the first interface and the switch module respectively, and the protection module is used for controlling the disconnection between the switch module and the relay control interface in the case of short circuit between the first steel rail and the second steel rail, and if the switch module has a short circuit fault. The application can improve the reliability of the electronic switch circuit and the safety of the track.

A track planning system for planning movement of trains is disclosed. At least some of the trains comprise a plurality of containers, and each container comprises at least one train equipment. The system comprises a data store arranged to store container data indicative of: the equipment associated with each container or each equipment, and a planned future location of the container. The system is arranged to produce data indicative of a train diagram for display, the train diagram comprising a line for each container, each line indicative of a planned location of the container over time and space, and the system comprises an interface arranged to facilitate a user to modify the planned location of the container, and thereby modify the line associated with the container on the train diagram.
